Ghana Childcare

I thought IVHQ did a very great job at preparing me for my journey abroad. Without knowing a whole lot about Africa, the people, the culture and the volunteer trip as a whole, they really helped to get a good sense of what it would be like and what I was to except. Once I arrived in Ghana, the local staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. However there was a little miscommunication on airport pick up. I never once felt unsafe while there and if there was an issue IVHQ did their best to resolve it. I would have liked a little bit more structure and organization with the program I was in, once in my placement. We had a few basic jobs, but I would have liked to do more to make an impact on the people/ kids. I loved working in childcare because the kids made it for me. Their love and happiness was infectious and because of it changed my life! I would definitely travel with them again!
